Show your appreciation for your Green role models at UW by nominating them for a Husky Green Award!

In support of the University of Washington’s long-standing commitment to sustainability, the Husky Green Awards recognize exemplary achievement of an individual or team from the UW community who have demonstrated leadership, initiative and dedication to campus sustainability.

Students, faculty, staff and groups from any of the UW campuses are eligible for the award, and any member of the UW community can submit a nomination.

The 2019 nomination submission deadline was March 10. Nominations are now closed. Winners will be announced during UW's Earth Day celebrations in April.

Several dozen students, faculty and staff have received Husky Green Awards since the program began in 2010. The Husky Green Awards are sponsored by the Environmental Stewardship Committee, and are the only recognition program at the University which recognize a commitment to sustainability.
